Travel with added value

Language-stay programmes are much more than simply a means of improving language skills. In the case of young learners, such programmes are often the child’s first solo trip to another country and can therefore be an important step on their journey to becoming more independent.

CERTIFIED QUALITY

The FDSV was founded in 1977 as a consortium of German language-tour operators with the aim of creating verifiable quality standards for consumers. All FDSV members commit to upholding these standards.
An independent Scientific Advisory Board regularly inspects the language schools, language courses and accommodations to ensure compliance with the Quality Guidelines of the FDSV and requirements of the European standard for language-study tour providers (EN 14804). If all quality criteria are met, the seal “FDSV – Certified Quality according to EN 14804” can be awarded.

SECURITY & TRANSPARENCY

The FDSV creates transparency through its continuous monitoring of the language-stay market. With its Quality Guidelines, the FDSV helps interested language learners find language schools that suit their needs.
Our Language-Stay E-Book, Quality Guidelines and helpful checklist with numerous facts and tips can help you plan a perfectly tailored language stay.
